Hi John,

I can feel your pain about losing TWO Geckos in one day. Not even a
fortnight !

I noticed that there are two different Chineese drivers listed on the
posted link. One 3 amp the other 7 amps.

I have not seen any reference to them in the States although I'm sure
there are a few guys rushing around to try to secure the sole import
rights : )

Keep us posted on how these work. I did notice the 3A version is
good for up to 40V and the 7 amp verson is good up to 70 volts and has
more multiplier choices.
